Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund were founded in 1909 and play their home games at Signal Iduna Park in Germany.

The sturdy lads of Borussia Dortmund have been kicking about since the year of 1909, with their dwelling being the robust Signal Iduna Park, situated over in Germany. No mean feat, I assure you.

Now, if one were to assess the collective worth of these chaps, based on their careful honing of the beautiful game, you'd find the total market value sitting at about £405.5m, which is far from a meagre sum, I might add. This figure has been curated by none other than the fine folks at Transfermarkt.

The team is composed of a squad of 23, carrying an average age of 25 - plenty of life in them yet, plenty of footballing years left to dazzle us, no doubt.

This season, the Borussia Dortmund lot have been rather industrious, plying their trade in not one, or two, but four competitions. They're making a decent fist of the Bundesliga - sitting 6th, holding their own in the DFB-Pokal - having reached the Second Round, trying their hand at the Club World Cup, stationed in Group F, and also rubbing shoulders with the big boys in the League Phase of the Champions League.

At home, Borussia Dortmund have scored an average of 2.5 goals per game, which is fewer than Celtic's 3.1 goals per match at Celtic Park, but given the highly competitive league, Borussia Dortmund’s scoring record at home is arguably more impressive.
